AHMEDABAD: (Mar 30) India has always been a great nation contributing to the global understanding of the universe from the time of the Vedas to modern-day scientific advances, former ISRO chairman S Somanath has said citing some ancient texts.
Addressing the 60th annual convocation of the Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad on Saturday, Somanath also emphasised the need for a connection between research organisations, academia and industry, which he, however, added remained a “distant dream”.
“On this occasion, I would like to highlight the rich and glorious knowledge tradition that India had, which has now been brought to light. From the Vedas to the modern-day scientific advances, India has always been a great nation contributing to the global understanding of the universe,” he said. PTI
